Department & Employer Info

Do you have on-campus or local part-time positions to fill? The University of Arkansas Part-Time Job Fair is a great way to connect with our students who are looking to get work experience while attending school. We would love to have employers who are "student-friendly" at the fair. These "student-friendly" employers would be open to working around student's school schedules and requirements as well as providing our students with an opportunity to get experience. As a reminder, off-campus jobs must comply with our policies and guidelines (no door-to-door or private residential jobs). This fair is open to ALL U of A students and is held during the first weeks of the semester, also known as "Welcome Weeks".

Fair Time: 1:30-3:30pm. Entry for Federal Work Study students begins at 1:00pm. Please have your booths set by 1:00pm and be available to talk to students at that time. Federal Work Study is a need-based financial aid award that allows students to earn money through an on-campus job. A student who is awarded Federal Work Study will have a portion of their wage come from their Federal Work Study award instead of your departmental budget. Campus departments and non-profit organizations are eligible employers. Employers who want hire work study students for the first time should contact Erin Wooldridge at workstud@uark.edu.

The booth registration deadline is Wednesday, August 7th, 2024.

"Not only did the career fair give me the opportunity to expand my network, it also allowed me to set up interviews and learn more information about companies for possible internship opportunities for the upcoming summer."
